Default Re: SS/AM Questions?

I have a Pontiac with Performer RPM heads which are SS legal, the car runs 8.50s with a cast intake and single Dominator @ 7#/CID. I can add a sheetmetal intake and dual carbs. I might not be the fastest but I should be .600 under BUT are the heads legal or not

The Mopar heads are, those P5 motors are quite nasty.

Quote from Karl: It makes no sense you cant run an aluminum copy of a factory head but you can use a canted valve SBC head which resembles nothing close to a production head.

What about IHRA?

Super Stock production classes?

It is all about the factory part number. If Ford had assigned a factory part number to them they would be legal. That is what makes sense...
You need to have a conversation with Mike Baker @ IHRA about the FE Ebelbrock head. He's the IHRA man!!

We are working on a Yates headed deal for later this year. We realized how close the setup is from our current NMCA N/A 10.5 setup and will have the ability to race closer to home and more often...

Sheet metal intake and two carbs for sure is the way to go.
